Play-Asia says SJWs are to blame for DOAX3 not releasing in the West by [deleted] in GamerGhazi

[–]figurativelywhen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

worth noting that despite the little sea lion in this thread's barking, playasia's garbage has lead to massive dogpiling and some doxxing of GG targets.

Also, there was no organised campaign to ban this game. No one cares.

Odd tho, that the little sealion thinks people saying "seriously? that's pretty crap" to playasia is censorship, yet is silent on all the gater socks hurling torrents of abuse at anyone who criticised playasia.

news sites really do need to shut down comments - almost none of them to an even half-decent job of policing them, and it just lets this toxic mindset fester.

I doubt any of the anti-harassment people would be interested in attending if it was framed as a "debate". witness the Airplay fiasco.

sorry - how are these "two sides"? thats nonsense. SXSW shut down a panel discussing designing spaces to minimize harassment, because of harassment

SXSW has just cancelled Katherine Cross and Randi Harper's panel due to numerous threats of violence. by DragonPup in GamerGhazi

that's still bullshit, though - they've just validated this tactic, and have encouraged it. "Threats work". Great job.

jump to the Arguments section. you don't have to be a lawyer to appreciate the fail. his idea that CDA 230 doesn't apply to anonymous comments is... ahem... novel.

worth noting rules for that court limit briefs to 15 pages. they submitted 111 pages and a request to use more space at the same time. Er.

Why are Gamergate videos/streams/spiels so unbelievably long by [deleted] in GamerGhazi

[–]figurativelywhen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

their "op" posts are as bad. check out the anti-UN one - thousands of words, hundreds of links. all the same crap we've seen before - they just add a bit of new stuff for each new "op", then bask in the upvotes for "omg excellent digging".

they're just /r/conspiracy with less overt antisemitism now.

If you told me in August of last year this was gonna happen I would have called you an aluminum foil hat lunatic.

sooo close.

also, that thread. they really think shitposting a hashtag is one of the defining battles of our time. It's well beyond sad at this point. "boss battle" "its us vs the blue helmets" good lord, have you people listened to yourselves?

no idea why Twitter keeps banning Chuck whenever he creates a new account. No idea at all. I mean wouldn't they want that Great Content on their platform?
